'Ed'- finished
Here is a shot of what I think was the finished ED. I think that this chimpanzee suit made at Animated Engineering, was one of the best ape suits ever made for any film. The problem is that the movie was so genuinely horrible that nobody saw it! We worked long and hard to make a great-looking suit with great movement, top-notch hair work and mechanics, but I fear it was in vain. The woman who wore the suit was a tiny lady who had been an Olympic gymnast. I forgot her name, but she was fantastic to work with, and she could do wonders in that suit. The puppeteering was great as well.
